May R'llor take you with his fire for speaking such blasphemy.

Poor Stannis. You get the impression he was never hugged as a child.

I'm surprised he has any teeth left, he seems to be grinding them continually.
On a serious note, I can see Stannis making up for his sins by sacrificing his life. Not that he has any intention of doing that now, but I can see a last minute redemption attempt occuring. Maybe.

I used to grind my teeth whenever I was in a stressful moment in my life- I even did it during my sleep. I would wake up with strangely sensitive teeth, baffled about why until I ended up having a long talk with my dentist.

Danny has to find riders now; the riders can’t be so far geographically (on the wall like Jon). The riders had to be in same city as Danny or near. I think Danny will ask that guy (that is supposable Targ (he sad so)) to help her with dragons. Maybe she asked that girl M. (don’t want to spell it wrong) to, but her dragon will die (three dragons are to much).

[stonStark]

I remembered that guy's name: Brown Ben.

I lean towards the theories that the riders do not necessarily need to be Taragaryan's in blood, but might just be husbands selected by Dany's or something along those lines. Wasn't there a prophecy about her being betrayed several times? I know of few of those betrayals have all ready happened, but perhaps they relate to the three heads.

While I won't dismiss the R+L=J theory, it is made rather clear that Jon has stark blood in him many times. This is possible under the theory, but I'd lean towards him being Ned's actual son since it has been mentioned that he looked very much like Ned.

I think Tyrion is definately the son of Tywin and his wife. Tywin hated Tyrion because he was his son and because he not only killed the wife he loved, but because he came out a deformed little dwarf.

Only 1 or 2 betrayals happened (I think 2 dont quote me) but Dany is growing more clever and more unique as a leader.

That being said she will never have westeros.

[Faceless Woman]

Jon looks like a Stark. That could be Lyanna as much as Ned.

And I sort of agree that Dany will never have Westeros. GRRM keeps showing us the difference between honour and right. It would be honourable for Dany to have the Iron throne, but right is something else, I don't know what.
I think this whole crowns thing is a red herring, or at most a metaphor for the deeper troubles facing Westeros, the others. Magic will become more and more important as the series continues, until everything else is forgotten.

[Werthead]

GRRM has said that the level of magic will rise a little further in the series than exists at the moment, but it will never reach the stage of people running around flinging fireballs at one another. So even at its 'highest level' in the books, it will never be the most important factor in the books.

[Faceless Woman]

That depends what you mean by important. Important and obvious are not always the same thing.

[stonStark]

Magic is already important factor in the ASOIAF. Is it most important….? How can you define that? What is now most important factor in the book? It depends form whose POW are you looking, and even than it is hard to tell.

[the smiling weirwood]

The most important thing is the story. The characters. The heartbreak, turmoil, love, all those things of a conflicted heart.

"It's still the same old story, a fight for love and glory, a case of do or die."

It's not about politics, or dragons, or undead, or good against evil, or fantastic sex, it's about people. Whatever awaits for Dany and her dragons will come from that, not blood or magic or deeds of property.

You can just keep wondering....I'm not smiling for nothing, you know.
